Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade

General Scheme of Israeli Settlements in the Occupied Palestinian Territory (Prohibition of Importation of Goods) Bill 2025: Discussion (Resumed)

2:00 am

Mr. Gerry Liston:

The heads of Bill before the committee refer to the Customs Act 2015 and that Act creates a general regime for banning imports of whatever types of goods it is decided should be banned. That includes administrative mechanisms the customs authorities can deploy to stop prohibited goods and also contains offences for knowingly importing goods that are prohibited.
